Does a Buy-Sell Agreement Decide What Happens to My Business Interest in a Nebraska Divorce?

If you own part of a closely held business, or you're married to someone who does, the company's buy-sell agreement may set a buyout price. Does that price decide what the interest is worth in a Nebraska divorce? Not automatically. This post explains what the Nebraska Supreme Court actually decided in Brozek v. Brozek. It also covers why the agreement's exact wording and the valuation evidence both matter, and what an October 2026 Court of Appeals decision says about relying on tax returns. We close with what to gather and what to ask before anyone signs or responds to a proposed buyout.
